portainer: how to update to latest version

I do it this way as well, because I use a different port as I run a Logitech Media Server container, and the default Portainer port clashes. Just click Advanced to change port numbers.

Really handy!

Any advice on upgrading to portainer 2.0?

See: https://www.portainer.io/installation/

Going forward do not use OMV's Docker page to install it or you will break what you have.

omv-extras 5.3.5 will install portainer-ce (2.0) now.

Thanks! I had a feeling that waiting would be the best option ...

Hi,

I have omv-extras 5.4 installed but I still cannot update Portainer from 1.24.1 to 2.0.0.

In OMV, in Plugins I checked which version of OMV-Extra is installed. It reads "5.4".

In OMV | OMV-Extras | Docker, I clicked on Portainer | Install. Output:

Docker storage :: /srv/dev-disk-by-label-SSDSeagate1T/dockers
Opt-out :: 1
arch   :: armhf
option :: portainer
state  :: install
extras :: 5.2.6
DNS OK.

Done.

Then, I'm reconnecting to the Portainer web ui. It still reads 1.24.1 "An new version is available"

I don't understand why the version no. of OMV-Extras reads 2.4 in OMV | Plugins but in the output it reads

extras :: 5.2.6

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Markus

clear your browser cache, uninstall, clear browser cache, install.

test it, must work.

You don't have 5.4 installed. You have 5.2.6 installed as the output shows. The plugin list just shows the version you can install.

Thanks, but I do not quite follow you.

I cannot install 5.4 as the install button is greyed-out. only the uninstall button is visible:

I went to OMV | OMV-Extras | Settings and to the Updates tab and tried 1) update , and 2) apt clean and then update. After 1) and 2) I then went to OMV | OMV-Extras | Settings. On the Portainer tab I clicked on install with no effect. I get the same output that 5.2.6 is installed.

You are digging in the wrong place. You need to go to Systems | Update Management.

Thanks, I could update OMV-Extras at Systems | Update Management and then update Portaine.

Best, Markus

How did you update portainer?

Greetings,

It is about one year since the last post here and a bit more since I suggested how to update portainer.

It looks like my trick dont work anymore.

Installing portainer again within the System OMV-Extra does not update portainer anymore.

I would much appreciate an update from any of you if you have been able to do that.

I am on portainer 2.5.1 and I see there is 2.6.3 available.

How did you update portainer?

Thanks

Why not just goto OMV GUI and click the portainer drop down and click install?

OMV will redeploy portainer with the newest version

I know Watchtower will update it but since I don't use it, (and for those that also don't) to update portainer, all it has to be done is what I said above, easy.

Just read the thread and saw that what the OP said, 🤭
